    List of Anti-Viruses working in Windows 10 TP


    Thought I'd test one of my spare F-Secure licences on W10 and it's working fine. Banking Protection deosn't seem to kick in when it should but I'll get to the bottom of that. Otherwise all looks good.

    fatal error 016o3u , recording plays nonstop, COMPUTER LOCKED UP, Cant close browser, Defender is GONE

    Hello,

    The "Windows has been block due to suspicious activity” is usually caused by adware installed on your computer. May we know if you tried searching Windows Defender using Search or Cortana? If you can't close the browser, we suggest that you try the below
    steps:

    • Open Task Manager using Search or Cortana.
    • Scroll through the list till you see your web browser’s process and highlight it.
    • Once you have selected the browser’s process, click on the End Task button.
    • Close your browser process
    • Your browser window should now be closed. The next time you open your browser, do not allow the browser to open the last opened page.

    In addition, you can visit this support website to help you with protecting your system from malware, viruses and online threats:

    We'll keep an eye out for your response.
